FIELD NOTE: TESTING AS TEACHERS' WORK
Abstract
This short note from a field study turns up little that is unexpected, but points out that the notorious ambivalence of teachers towards the use of tests deserves a doser look. Academies and others who live by the logic of their analyses have perhaps been making rather too easy assumptions about the real nature of a teacher's work. RÉSUMÉ Cet aperçu rapide sur une recherche dans le milieu révèle peu d'éléments inattendus, mais souligne combien l'attitude ambivalente bien connue des enseignants envers l'utilisation des tests mérite une nouvelle réflexion. Les mandarins du monde académique pour qui la logique de leurs analyses est évidente ont peut-être bâti des hypothèses trop rapides sur la nature réelle des labeurs d'enseignant.Downloads
